We in Albania don’t speak your language. But I hope that we understand very well each other from another language, the language of the heart. And this is the reason we are making a difference in such difficult times for Iranian people. Having the horse doesn’t means that you are a knight. Having boxes to vote — this does not mean that you are free to vote Helping Assad that killed his people with chemical weapons or helping Iranian people that are in need — our choice is to help you. And this is the reason that 3,000 Iranians are sheltered in Albania. They are in our faith, and Albanian faith is a word large, like world. We are waiting to see you soon back in Tehran.
